All Points Blog links to a timesunion article about Google helping drive advances at MapInfo. From the article: "Cattini said his company has added features to its MapInfo Professional software that allow customers to access Google's map data. He stressed in an interview after the conference call that Google is not a competitor and uses its maps primarily to drive people to the Google Web site."
